I.D. This BPS?

My grandfather has this 10 ga BPS, most of which I know are meant to be turkey and duck guns. This one seems to have been designed more like a defense type model. Barrel length is around 18" and it came stock with ghost ring sights. This gun is a TANK, weighs as much too but recoil is actually not bad at all due to that. One of my favorite shotguns I have ever fired.

Checked Borwning's website and couldn't find it, neither could Google. Anyone know this model and maybe the production years? I'd love to find one for myself.

Here it is, sorry for the cruddy picture quality.

To me, it looks like a home brew. Every 'tactical' Browning I have seen, and I own a 12 ga, doesn't have the barrel rib. Interesting shootgun.
